The Med does have a tide but insignificant due to the restriction created by the Straights of Gibralta

Doesn't it?
The all-knowing Wikipedia says its tides are limited as it has only small connections to the rest of the world's oceans.

Its waves are limited because that sea is surrounded by land forms and it has a narrow connection with the other seas

It does but they are not very large due to the small gap between Gibralter and North Africa, The moon will still pull the Water around but it is not so apparent!

it does. it's just not as obvious as in the north sea due to the fact its in the middle of the land. that's where it got the name. anyways water flows are not so massive as in atlantic so the water level differences are not that huge.

It does, but they are diminutive compared to the Atlantic and other seas and oceans. (By the way, dosent should be spelled doesn't)
